Description
English:

Born in Georgia, cartographer Clifford Gordon Quillian (1880-1948) first came to Seattle in 1907. He married Cora Elizabeth Armstrong (1888-1957) in 1912, served with the U.S. Navy in the Philippines, WWI, and WWII, was the commander of various ships in the United States Coast Guard and Geodesic Survey, and was a chartered life-insurance underwriter. In this image, a group of passengers on board the USC&GS Carlile P. Patterson are photographed by Captain Quillian, who had been assigned command of the wooden survey ship the previous year. When the image was taken the ship was making its way through the recently opened Lake Washington Ship Canal east towards Lake Union. The bridge visible behind the boat appears to be Salmon Bay Bridge, built in 1914 by the Great Northern Railway to cross Salmon Bay, connecting the Magnolia and Interbay neighborhoods to Ballard.
